Trojan Battery Co., a leading manufacturer of deep cycle batteries, last week announced new distribution agreements in China — a strategy laid out to further expand its presence and strengthen its leadership across Asia. Trojan’s new authorized distributors are Getz Bros. Hong Kong Ltd.; JSB Ltd.; YHI Corp. (Beijing) Co., Ltd; and ShangHai Link Trade Co., Ltd. Each distributor will be responsible for overseeing the distribution and servicing of Trojan products in their assigned territories.
“With many of our major OEM partners expanding their manufacturing facilities to China it makes sense for Trojan to strengthen its presence throughout China,” said David Godber, executive vice president of sales and marketing for Trojan Battery. “Trojan’s strategic new alliances in China will allow us to provide localized, dedicated sales and technical support services that our customers have come to expect from Trojan. Further, by expanding our distribution in China, Trojan can readily meet the demands of China’s fast-growing new industries including golf, renewable energy, floor machine and aerial work platforms.”
Emerson Fung, Trojan’s director of sales, Asia-Pacific, added, “The implementation of four distributors, with each distributor focusing on a smaller territory, makes Trojan products more readily available in China and allows us to respond faster to customer requests. Through an increase in sub-dealer network, Trojan can increase its business significantly throughout all of China.”
Getz Bros. Hong Kong Ltd., a subsidiary of the Getz Group with more than 50 offices located worldwide, is a long-time Trojan Master Distributor for China whose expanded distribution territory now includes the provinces of Guangdong (excludes Hainan Island), Guangxi, Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou.
